Cyclamen Persicuiii Gigaiiteum 



" Yli'oiider of YITaiidsbcli,"

 few equals and no superiors, and if is a pleasure to be able to 

 offer really fine new colors in this plant, which are the result 

 of years of painstaking selection by the foremost Cyclamen 

 specialist of the world. It is iden- 

 tical in every way to the beit forms 

 of the giant-flowering type, but of 

 various shades of brilliant rose suf- 

 fused with salmon, which imparts a 

 glow to tiie color that is indescrib- 

 able, and which is present until the 

 flower fades, never showing a trace 

 of the dull, purplish tinge common 

 to the regular strain. 35 cts. per 

 pkt.; 3 pkts, $1.00.
